Purdal is a unit of measure for musical intervals, suggested by Tútim Dennsuul, which is the Ditave (2/1, the 'Octave') divided into 9900 equal parts. The Purdals are shown as a reliable and very consistent to idealize any musical system, whether just or temperate.
The purpose that it have is for the need of precise with better quality in its presentation, those 'EDDs' who have a quantity equal to a prime number of intervals and systems until 990 steps per Ditave, only requiring 2 decimals for a basic precision. The 12-EDD contains 825 Purdals in each semitone; Each Purdal is equivalent to 4/33 of a Cent (0.12 Cents), and 1 Cent is 8.25 Purdals.
The table below show us uniquely the translation of the Purdal values without decimals, to the simple Cent equivalence,in some harmonic ratios for comparisson:
